autoPropane. Clean. And Green.
autoPropane is the market leader in alternative fuels for the transportation sector.
It is the most effective and easiest "clean fuel" for fleet operators to implement — and it represents a readily available and proven solution for fleet operators in the light and light-medium duty market.
In fact, the U.S. Department of Energy predicts that propane will be the leading alternative of fuel for the 21st century.
The reason for the world-wide popularity of autoPropane are clean and simple.
Here's an overview:
- autoPropane is Cost Effective:
- 25% less expensive than conventional gasoline
- 28% less expensive than E10 ethanol-blended gasoline
- 50% less expensive than E85 ethanol-blended gasoline
- 11% less expensive than diesel
- 9% less expensive than natural gas (Ivey 06-08)
- autoPropane pricing has been, and is likely to be, more stable than gasoline, diesel and ethanol blends well into the future (Iven 06-08)
- autoPropane is Clean
- propane is more environmentally friendly than gasoline or diesel
- up to 26% less greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) than conventional gasoline
- significantly fewer emissions of criteria air contaminants and air toxics that impact air quality and human health (Iven 06-08)
- using autoPropane instead of conventional gasoline reduces particulate matter (PM10) by 40%, nitrogen oxides by 50% and total hydrocarbon (THC) emissions by 87% (Alternative Fuels Vehicle Institute)
- autoPropane Makes a Real Difference
- moving people and goods accounts for 19% of Canada's total greenhouse gas emissions (GHG)
- converting a single high consumption vehicle (i.e. 60,000 km annually) to autoPropane instead of gasoline will reduce greenhouse gass emiessions (GHG) by approximately 1.8 tonnes (Ivey 06-08)
- converty 60,000 vehicles and reduce GHG by 240,000 tonnes
- convert 80,000 vehicles and reduce GHG by 320,000 tonnes
- convert 100,000 vehicles and reduce GHG by 400,000 tonnes
- autoPropane Delivers Performance
- custom designed equipment for every engine platform
- 100% approved components
- vehicle starts in all weather conditions
- closed loop system ensures odour-free operation
- no horsepower loss - vehicle operation is unchanged
- no specialized maintenance equipment required.
- autoPropane Vehicles Last Longer
- clean propane is high octane (103) fuel versus "premium" gasoline at 91-93 octane)
- engines can last 2-3 times longer than gasoline and diesel engines (NPGA 11-06)
- autoPropane Vehicles are Safe
- all components of autoPropane systems are designed, approved and installed in accordance with stringent safety requirements under the jurisdiction of various government and regulatory organizations
- propane tanks are 20 times more puncture resistant than gasoline tanks (PGAC 09-08)
- autoPropane is Readily Available for Your Fleet
- Sparling's installs turn-key propane refill stations - the right equipment for your specific fleet requirements
- training is available from Sparling's Instructors for your drivers - or prepare for training in-house with a Train the Trainer program from Sparling's
- autoPropane programs at Sparling's are structured to provide you with tremendous flexibility (i.e. Price Protection Plan, Pre-Buy), to Guranatee reliable propane supply and Guarantee service 24-7
- autoPropane is Proven
- worldwide, approximately 11 million vehicles -and growing- are running Clean and Green on high performance autoPropane (World LP Gas Association)
